The following is a copy paste of an email I sent to interested parties that signed up to receive notice of when the excess copies of Beyond the Breach were to be up for sale (of which you can still sign up to get emails): http://beyondthebreach.tumblr.com/purchase This was also cross posted publicly to the BtB Kickstarter page, as I’ve received inquiries through there as well.
If you didn’t receive this email but DID give me your email through the quick form I had set up, please go submit your email again! Not quite sure what would’ve happened, but that’s why I’ll be cross posting the email sent to Tumblr and Kickstarter.
Hello everyone! You are receiving this email because you sent it to me via the quick and dirty email list I had set up here: http://beyondthebreach.tumblr.com/purchase If you didn't do that, or you are no longer interested, just shoot a reply back to me and I'll remove you from the list. You may also ask to be removed at any time.
Anyway! Down to business. Getting the excess books up for sale has taken more time than I wanted. There's been some stragglers as far as Kickstarter backers has gone, and those all have taken priority. There are STILL stragglers, and I'm actually still getting international orders sent back to me. With that in mind, I don't have the entirety of the excess copies that I can put up for sale. BUT, that doesn't mean I need to sit on all the copies. I'd like to put up half the stock I have for sale about mid-June. The remainder after THAT, would be put up, most likely, closer to fall/winter, just to be extra super sure that all Kickstarter backers were taken care of.
That's the current plan. This email serves as a heads up, and as a "let's make sure everyone's email works." I'll send out another email two weeks before I put books up for sale, with the specific day and rough time frame.
I think that covers it. To reiterate:
Half of books remaining will be up for sale initially (this is about 40 copies).
Looking at mid-June, will email with specifics two weeks ahead of time.
Books will be up on a Storenvy specifically set up for Beyond the Breach.
Books will be $20, with an additional $10 for international shipping (same as the $20 tier on the Kickstarter). (I'll reiterate when the books are up for sale, but I'd prefer that books are limited to one purchase per person, in an attempt to give as many people as possible a chance to get the book.)
Remaining half of books will be up for sale in the fall/winter.
Once all books have sold, that's it. (Special circumstances may make a reprint possible, but that will need confirmation that all contributors are okay with a reprint, more crowd funding, and passing BtB onto another person who would have that bandwidth.)
I'll chat you all up in June! I'm excited to get the rest of the books out to people, 1) to free up space in my apartment, and 2) to finally make those donations once all funds are accounted for!
